Help for the extended search

You can combine multiple search parameters.

Some of the available search fields allow direct entering of search terms. Right behind these fields, you can find a small checkbox. If you fill in your search term, the search generally runs for any occurrences of the entered string. By enabling the small checkbox ("Exact"), you can execute a search for that exact term.

There are also option menus. You can select search conditions by clicking on their respective entry in the appearing list there.

The third type of fields that neither have an "exact" checkbox nor consist of a list, reacts to your inputs. Once you type in some text, a list of suggested terms appears for you to select from.

England became a unified state in the 10th century, and since the Age of Discovery, which began during the 15th century, has had a significant cultural and legal impact on the wider world. The English language, the Anglican Church, and English law – the basis for the common law legal systems of many other countries around the world – developed in England, and the country´s parliamentary system of government has been widely adopted by other nations.
